We introduce a privacy measure called pointwise maximal leakage, generalizing the pre-existing notion of maximal leakage, which quantifies the amount of information leaking about a secret $X$ by disclosing a single outcome of a (randomized)…
Recent work~\cite{Liu2016} has shown that dependencies between items in a dataset can lead to privacy leaks. We extend this concept to privacy-preserving transformations, considering a broader set of dependencies captured by correlation…
An information-theoretic privacy mechanism design is studied, where an agent observes useful data $Y$ which is correlated with the private data $X$. The agent wants to reveal the information to a user, hence, the agent utilizes a privacy…
Pointwise maximal leakage (PML) is an operationally meaningful privacy measure that quantifies the amount of information leaking about a secret $X$ to a single outcome of a related random variable $Y$. In this paper, we extend the notion of…
We introduce a family of information leakage measures called maximal $\alpha,\beta$-leakage, parameterized by real numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$. The measure is formalized via an operational definition involving an adversary guessing an…
We introduce a tunable measure for information leakage called maximal alpha-leakage. This measure quantifies the maximal gain of an adversary in inferring any (potentially random) function of a dataset from a release of the data. The…
A tunable measure for information leakage called \textit{maximal $\alpha$-leakage} is introduced. This measure quantifies the maximal gain of an adversary in refining a tilted version of its prior belief of any (potentially random) function…
We examine the relationship between privacy metrics that utilize information density to measure information leakage between a private and a disclosed random variable. Firstly, we prove that bounding the information density from above or…
We introduce a privacy measure called statistic maximal leakage that quantifies how much a privacy mechanism leaks about a specific secret, relative to the adversary's prior information about that secret. Statistic maximal leakage is an…
Information-theoretic (IT) measures based on $f$-divergences have recently gained interest as a measure of privacy leakage as they allow for trading off privacy against utility using only a single-value characterization. However, their…
In this work, maximal $\alpha$-leakage is introduced to quantify how much a quantum adversary can learn about any sensitive information of data upon observing its disturbed version via a quantum privacy mechanism. We first show that an…
We propose a general statistical inference framework to capture the privacy threat incurred by a user that releases data to a passive but curious adversary, given utility constraints. We show that applying this general framework to the…
The privacy-utility tradeoff problem is formulated as determining the privacy mechanism (random mapping) that minimizes the mutual information (a metric for privacy leakage) between the private features of the original dataset and a…
We propose an operational measure of information leakage in a non-stochastic setting to formalize privacy against a brute-force guessing adversary. We use uncertain variables, non-probabilistic counterparts of random variables, to construct…
We introduce a novel generalization of entropy and conditional entropy from which most definitions from the literature can be derived as particular cases. Within this general framework, we investigate the problem of designing…
This paper proposes an operational measure of non-stochastic information leakage to formalize privacy against a brute-force guessing adversary. The information is measured by non-probabilistic uncertainty of uncertain variables, the…
We study a statistical signal processing privacy problem, where an agent observes useful data $Y$ and wants to reveal the information to a user. Since the useful data is correlated with the private data $X$, the agent employs a privacy…
This paper proposes a measurement approach for estimating the privacy leakage from Intrusion Detection System (IDS) alarms. Quantitative information flow analysis is used to build a theoretical model of privacy leakage from IDS rules, based…
In the federated learning system, parameter gradients are shared among participants and the central modulator, while the original data never leave their protected source domain. However, the gradient itself might carry enough information…
The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to improve user utility by tuning applications to user behavior, but revealing the characteristics of a user's behavior presents a significant privacy risk. Our previous work has established the…
